BOARD OF SELECTMEN - 1981
Selectmen organized with Jeanne E. Hemenway, Chairman, Arthur J.
King, Clerk, and Steve Berrien, Welfare Agent. Meetings were
held regularly throughout the year as the press of business
both routine and unusual made the usual bi-weekly summer meet-
ings impossible.
The Board was in the forefront in viewing the concerns of the
town about the siting of a group residence proposed by the
State Department of Mental Health. The proposal, had it been
acted on would have located a group home in either the village
of Haydenville or Williamsburg, Unfortunately the experience of
the town with such facilities has not been pleasant and the
Department of Mental Health has withdrawn its proposals at this
time.
The Board also became involved in the proposal to convert the
Brassworks and adjacent land areas into high density low and
moderate income housing. While the Board of Appeals rejected
this proposal, the matter has been appealed to a state review
agency which will decide the matter. The Selectmen intend to
continue their opposition to this project which would sorely
tax the ability of the Water, Fire, Police and School Depart-
ments to provide service.
As a result of a vote of the Special Town Meeting, the Board
granted a provisional license to Continental Cablevision of
Northampton to provide cable service to the town. Construction
is to begin in the spring of 1982. The system will serve
approximately half of the town residents. We wish to thank
Mr. Keith Longey for his work in bringing this service to our
community.
The Selectmen attempted to deal with the fiscal constraints of
Proposition 2^ by increasing the fees for licenses and permits.
These increases have generated significant new income to the
town, but unfortunately only cover the cost of the services
provided.
The Solid Waste Transfer Station took much of the Selectmen's
attention, because of its extreme importance, cost, and the
order of the state Department of Environmental Quality Engineer-
ing issued against the town because of delays in completing
the project and the operation of the stump dump. The lesson to
be learned on this is that it only becomes more and more expen-
sive to the town when a project is delayed.
Because of reduced budget, the Highway Department had to move
more slowly with its normal work and do less. Nonetheless, the
reconstruction of Mountain Street was completed utilizing funds
from Ch. 570 and Ch. 329 accounts. There were 23 winter storms,
15 with snow totalling 32V', 6 freezing rain storms, and 2 heavy
rain storms causing many drainage problems. Sanding was done
on 23 storms and plowing operations on nine. The town was fortu-
nate that the winter was so mild but the Selectmen are concerned
that the weather will not always cooperate with our budget.
61
Pay raises were granted the Highway, Fire and Police Departments
and to the Town Secretary. The Selectmen note with concern,
that other Town Officers also work for salaries far below sums
that are equitable or reflect the responsibility and import-
ance of their positions.
A perambulation of the Town was conducted by the Selectmen
during the summer. All the boundaries were found. While
searching the woods for markers was not always easy, it was a
welcome change from dealing with the more important issues
before the Town.
Respectfully submitted,
Jeanne E. Hemenway, Chairman
Arthur J. King
Steve Berrien

COUNCIL ON AGEING ANNUAL REPORT 1981
For the Council on Ageing, 1981 has been a most interesting
year with much change in many ways. The usual events have
taken place. To name a few; monthly birthday luncheons and
entertainment, monthly trips by the Travel Club to the Coach-
light Theatre to enjoy current musicals, many day trips and
three and four day trips to places of interest, continuation
of activities including weekly bowling, exercise classes and
the regular issue of the Newsletter to more than 300 Senior
Citizens in the surrounding area.
Obviously the highlight of 1981 was the opportunity to move
from the basement to the two large rooms on the first floor
at the rear of the Haydenville Center School. The renovations
are partially finished and nearly completed, pending a grant
requested from the State Dept. of Elder Affairs for a Dis-
cretionary Grant for renovations to make the Senior Center
accessible for Handicapped persons. We are indebted to many
organizations, individuals, Activities Committee of the Senior
Center for their donations of monies. The auction, held on
the School grounds, also brought in a fine profit. The all
new Meal Site, the first project to be completed and put
into operation in August, has been a highlight of our Center.
Still to be completed will be the Handicap Toilet facilities,
being constructed in available space, and the Entrance Ramp
to be installed at the Center door at the rear of the build-
ing when weather permits in the Spring. It should be noted
that this move to the first floor has enabled us to maintain
the Blood Pressure Clinic in a permanent location which is
held on the third Monday of each month and a Foot Clinic
which is held every three months by appointment. We were also
able to obtain from the Dept. of Elder Affairs a Formula
Grant, which upon request, is given to all Councils on Ageing.
This sum of money is allocated for the purpose of holding
Arts and Crafts and Painting Classes.
When complete renovations have been finished we are making
plans and looking forward to holding Open House in our new
Senior Center Quarters. At that time due recognition will be
gratefully acknowledged in all areas to all who had any part
in this very worthwhile endeavor, made possible only by
many hours of manual labor by many individuals to achieve the
fruition of the Meal Site and Senior Drop-In Center. We do
indeed have reason to be very pleased and proud of what has
been accomplished to make this a most successful year.
We would like to express our appreciation and thanks to all for
support by their presence and offerings and interest in the
Senior Center.
Respectfully submitted,
Helen S. Kellogg, Director

CONSERVATION COMMISSION REPORT 1981
The Conservation Commission holds regular meetings on the
second Thursday of each month at the Town Offices.
The Conservation Commission is empowered to administer Gen.
Law 131, Sect. 40 (Wetland Protection Act) within the Town
of Williamsburg. This pertains to all activities within 100
feet of a river or wetland. No work should commence without
prior filing with this commission.
During 1981 we held two hearings under this act. We had
minor involvement in the Orwat Nursing home hearings and the
Brassworks hearings. We also investigated several wetland
area complaints.
The commission had one application pertaining to the Agricul-
tural Preservation Restriction Act under Chapter 780 of the
Acts of 1977.
The commission has copies of the Wetland Protection Act avail-
able to town residents and applications for the Agricultural
Preservation Restriction Act.

PLANNING BOARD REPORT 1981
The Planning Board met twice a month to review land division
plans under the Subdivision Control Regulations to consider
and suggest improvements and amendments to the Protective By
Law of the Town, and to offer opinions from a planning per-
spective on petitions to the Board of Appeals for variances
and special permits under the By Law.
Amendments regulating the disposal of hazardous and nuclear
wastes and the development of flood plain areas were presented
to Town Meetings, passed, and later approved by the Attorney
General of the Commonwealth.
The proposed Brassworks development occupied much of our time
during this year. In addition to the many specific problems
the proposal raised, the Board spent many hours attempting
to understand the Comprehensive Permit (Chapter 774) process,
and held several informational hearings at which the Brass-
works Associates were invited to present their plans informally
to the Town and receive comments and suggestions.
In addition, the Board continued to develop a set of comprehen-
sive maps for the Town. A map of hydrology and watersheds was
completed, and a utilities map was contracted for and a prelim-
inary draft seen. The following maps are now complete and
64
available for use: Base Map, Soils, Wetlands, Topography,
Hydrology, and Utilities.
Laurence Flaccus stepped down from the chairmanship of the
Board during the year, after 6 years of valuable service;
he remains an active member of the Board and the Town's

THE HAYDENVILLE LIBRARY REPORT 1981
Some interesting programs by local artists were held at the
library during the year, including a demonstration of the
dulcimer by Tim Van Egmond, and a poetry reading by Amanda
Emerson.
These programs were arranged by Lois Scott.
The Library continues to be well served by the Western Region-
al Bookmobile, now operating out of Hatfield. It offers many
excellent volumes of fiction and non-fiction, large print
books and record albums. This service is a great asset to a
small library with a low book budget.
Several acts of vandalism have occured at the library in
recent months, which is unfortunate, as repairs are costly.
The Haydenville Library is open for four hours each week, on
Wednesday from five to nine. Our librarian is Kathleen Doyle,
and assistant librarian is Shannon Cerreta .

REPORT OF THE FIRE CHIEF 1981
The Fire Department answered 71 calls during 1981. These calls
were: 16 chimney, 13 grass or woodland, 8 auto accidents,
7 dump, 6 structure, 3 appliance malfunctions, 3 false alarms,
1 lost child, 12 miscellaneous, 2 mutual aid.
Training and drill is an important segment of fire fighting
activities. Many hours are given by the firefighters learning
and preparing for situations that may occur.
An article is going to be presented at Town Meeting to replace
a piece of fire apparatus. We have two pieces whose age and
condition indicate that they should be replaced.
After long and careful consideration, the Williamsburg Fire
Department joined the fire dispatch center operated by the
Amherst Fire Department. This gives the residents of Williams-
burg emergency telephone coverage and dispatching 24 hours a
day, answering a problem we were experiencing of having gaps
in our telephone coverage and dispatching capabilities. With
the new service in place several weeks, it is working well
with few problems.
I thank the firefighters for their efforts and dedication
throughout the year in answering emergencies, maintaining the
buildings and eguipment, and making the Fire Department
operate in the efficient manner that it does. Also to Donald
and Joan Baldwin, a sincere thank you for many years of dedi-
cated service to the Town of Williamsburg and its Fire Dept.

WILLIAMSBURG HISTORIC COMMISSION REPORT
This year, the Commission has been called upon primarily as
interpreter of federal guidelines as they relate to the Historic
Districts of Williamsburg and Haydenville, and to express the
need to preserve and protect the architecture and settings of
specific properties in the Districts. We have attended Board of
Appeals meetings and rendered opinions to them about use, conver-
sion, and rehabilitation. We have been especially concerned and
active in the Brassworks and Dept. of Mental Health projects.
We have contacted federal and state agencies as well as the Lower
Pioneer Valley Regional Comm. to help us answer questions which
townspeople have had about the ramifications of being in an
historic district. We have also been working to amass informa-
tion which could be available to Town boards when making deci-
sions pertaining to district properties.

WATER COMMISSION REPORT 1981
The Board meets regularly on the 1st and 3rd Wednesday of
each month at the Town Office. The Board was very active in
planning for the future. Our 1904 water system is showing signs
of age and current demands, especially on fire hydrants, can-
not be met with our system. The Board met with engineers to
discuss work on the reservoir and has obtained engineering
estimates for several construction projects. The Board intends
to fund the work on a pay as we go basis, and we have reluctant-
ly, voted to increase water rates for bills after July 1, 1982.
We obtained bids and issued a forestry contract on the water-
shed which will not only improve the quality of our ground-
cover and road system, but also generate funds for construction.
We were very involved in explaining the water system and its
problems to the Board of Appeals concerning the Brassworks
project .

SEWER COMMISSION REPORT - 1981
The Sewer Commission organized with Richard L. Childs, Chair-
man, Harry W. Warner, Jr., and Walter E. Kellogg, III.
Meetings are held throughout the year on the second and fourth
Wednesday of each month at 7:30 at the Town Office.
By December, 1981 there were approximately 240 homes and
businesses connected to the sewer. The Board of Health has
notified all property owners along the Mill River and other
brooks and streams in Town that they must either have dye
tests done on their present systems or connect to the sewer.
Sewer permit applications are available at the Town Office.
These must be approved before any work can be started. Also
available at the Town Office is a list of the contractors
licensed to do work on the sewer connections.

At the close of the 1980-81 school year, this office was
moved from the Haydenville Center School to Hampshire Regional
High School in Westhampton. The move was undertaken as a
means to reduce administrative expenses through the elimination
of a shared rental fee which was rapidly approaching $9,000.00
per year for the other five (5) school committees. Although
two classroom spaces were lost in the move, the Region's educa-
tional program was not affected owing to the gradual decline
in students over the last several years.
Department personnel who left the employ of the town during
1981 included:
Mr. Walter Bachand Custodian
Mr. David Cloutier Physical Education
Mrs. Mary Foster Cafeteria (Part-time)
Mr. Alan Golash Custodian

During the 1981 session of the Massachusetts General Court,
several new statutes of importance relating to education were
written into law. Among them were the following:
1. Chapter 24 enables a regional school committee to delay
the adoption of its annual budget until 45 days prior to
the earliest member town meeting.
2. Chapter 62 reguires school bus drivers to activate their
red four-way hazard warning lights (simultaneous turn
signal lamps) when approaching a stop to load or dis-
charge students. While in the process of loading or
discharging students, bus drivers shall activate their
red alternating flashing signal lamps. Use of the alter-
nating flashing lights is prohibited at any other time.
3. Chapter 134 permits school committees to accept grants
or gifts for educational purposes and to disburse the
same for such purposes.
4. Chapter 339 authorizes a town (which accepts the provi-
sions of the act) to anticipate the receipt of fees
charged to users and to use such amounts to offset a
portion of actual expenses in making appropriations.
5. Chapter 460 permits parents or guardians of a student,
to inspect that student's school records regardless of
the age of that student.
6. Chapter 471 specifies that towns acting on appropriations
for educational costs, shall vote on the total amount
(bottom line) of appropriations reguested and shall not
allocate appropriations among accounts or place any
restriction on such appropriations. However, nonbind-
ing monetary recommendations to increase or decrease
certain line items may be made.
7. A new statute, signed into law by the Governor on the
morning of this writing and not as yet assigned a chapter
number, returns a limited but gualified degree of fiscal
autonomy to regional school committees. (See the Super-
intendent's Report to the Hampshire Regional School
District for details).
8. Another statute as yet without a chapter number contains
certain over-ride provisions with respect to "Proposi-
tion 2V which are too detailed for inclusion in this
report .
74
With the opening of school in September came changes which
will have an impact upon the community for a number of years
to come.
1. The Superintendent's Office was moved from the Hayden-
ville Center School to Hampshire Regional. This re-
sulted in a loss of rental income to the Town and the
closing of Center School for School Department purposes.
2. Declining enrollments and budgetary limitations caused
the School Committee to assign all elementary aged
pupils to the Dunphy School and to temporarily close
the James School. Jurisdiction of that building, how-
ever, remains with the School Department.
3. To accommodate all pupils at the Dunphy School, the
Cafeteria was converted into two (2) classrooms.
Lunches are now served at one end of the Gymnasium, an
arrangement used at a number of schools in other
communities .

The enactment of "Proposition 2%" in late 1980 meant loss of
fiscal autonomy to all school committees beginning in 1981.
Responding to that situation and recognizing the necessity
to effect budget reductions which would fall within the
ability-to-finance range of its five (5) member towns, the
Regional Committee took the following major steps:
1. Staff reduction of six and one-half (6^) positions.
2. Elimination of almost all field trips.
3. Elimination of the Junior High School interscholastic
athletic program.
4. Elimination of rent for the Superintendent's Office
by providing adeguate space within the school itself.
5. Limiting spending in all other areas to the minimum
and in some cases, to an emergency-only basis.
The loss of fiscal autonomy created a rather special problem
unique to regional school districts because it became possible
for each of the member towns to approve a different regional
budget. If different regional budgets were approved, the
regional committee then had to reduce all member town assess-
ments to meet the level of the one town approving the lowest
budget .
In order to rectify this situation and still maintain the
spirit of "Proposition 2 V , Chapter 744 of the Acts of 1981
was recently signed into law. This new law specifies that the
regional budget approval process shall require:
1. A 2/3 vote of the regional school committee.
2. A majority vote by 2/3 of the member towns.
If 2/3 of the member towns do not approve their respective
assessments, the regional school committee has 30 days within
which to amend the budget and resubmit it for approval. The
committee may also reduce its assessments to the member towns
at any time after adopting its annual budget. It should be
noted that in Hampshire Region, it will take a majority vote
by four (4) towns to achieve the necessary 2/3 vote of its
member towns.
Briefly stated, what this new law does for Hampshire Regional
when it comes to budgeting, is to restore what had become a
minority rule district to that of a majority rule district.
Although this statement is true when looked at from member
77
town point of view (the ability of 4 towns to determine the
District's level of support by the 5th town), the Town of
Southampton may not agree inasmuch as it shall be providing
more than 51% of the total assessments beginning July 1, 1982.
During years of fiscal austerity, one of the areas most likely
to receive inadeguate funding is that of building maintenance.
This reality coupled with the fact that our school is now in
its eleventh (11th) year of operation, means that maintenance
problems are being compounded at a rate with which our mainten-
ance efforts have not nearly been keeping pace. As an example,
the building has approximately 900 heating controls virtually
all of which need immediate attention in order to preclude
the possibility of system failure at some point in the near
future. Unfortunately, we remain in a "Maintenance by crisis"
rather than a more desirable "preventative maintenance" program.
The determination of fiscal priorities in a school budget is
further complicated by the fact that our curriculum does not
presently reflect any acknowledgement that computor literacy
is an absolute necessity for a significant number of our
current graduates. Hampshire Regional High School should no
longer delay movement in this direction. Unfortunately,
such a program will reguire new expenditures of major pro-
portions .
